	Vascular plant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In non-vascular plants, the principal generation phase is often the gametophyte, which is haploid with one set of chromosomes per cell.
		Non-vascular plants lack these and are restricted to relatively small sizes.
		In vascular plants, the principal generation phase is the sporophyte, which is diploid with two sets of chromosomes per cell.

	Non-vascular plant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		These groups may be considered the "lower" plants, but "lower plants is also often used to refer to non-vascular plants and ferns and fern allies.
		Non-vascular plants is a name for a group of plants.
		Because these plants lack the water-conducting tissues, they fail to achieve the structural complexity and size of vascular plants.

	Botany online: Supporting Tissues - Conducting Tissues
		The preceding topic mentioned the high water-content of plant cells that lends a high tension to plant tissues and is caused by the turgor.
		Often either phloem or xylem of the vascular bundles is associated with collenchyma cells.
		The wind makes the upper plant organs and the trunk act like a lever, a large part of the force is hence exerted onto the roots, that anchor the plant in the soil.

		Plant nomenclature follows that used in The Vascular Plants of Massachusetts: A County Checklist (Sorrie and Somers 1999), which is based largely on Kartesz (1994) and initial volumes of the Flora of North America.
		The goal of the vascular plant inventory was to cover as many islands and identify as many plants as possible, and to document rare plant occurrences.

	Vascular Plants
		Unlike most nonvascular plants, vascular plants have a dominant, conspicuous sporophytic generation which is nutritionally independent.
		Vascular plants have also developed a waxy outer covering called the cuticle which protects from desiccation due to water loss.
		Heterospory is unique to vascular plants; two different spores form egg-producing gametophytes and sperm-producing gametophytes.

	Biological Diversity 5
		Vascular plants tend to be larger and more complex than bryophytes, and have a life cycle where the sporophyte is more prominent than the gametophyte.
		Vascular plants are the more common plants like pines, ferns, corn, and oaks.
		Plants have an alternation of generations: the diploid spore-producing plant (sporophyte) alternates with the haploid gamete-producing plant (gametophyte).

	vascular plant structure
		The vascular tissue is embedded in the ground tissue as scattered bundles in monocots and as a cylindrical outer ring in dicots.
		Plants must be highly responsive to their environments as they cannot generally pick up their roots and grow somewhere else.
		Plants exhibit primary growth by which they increase in length and secondary growth which increases their girth.

	Introduction to Vascular Plants
		All vascular plants are oogamous and they have alternation of generations in which most of the gametophytes are reduced and nutritionally dependent upon the dominant sporophyte
		Homospory is common in most of the extinct, primitive vascular plants as well as the Psilotophyta, Sphenophyta, some Lycophyta, and most ferns, the Pterophyta
		Most primitive type and it is found in extinct seedless vascular plants as well as the Psilotophyta, Lycophyta and the roots of most extant plants

		In case of aliens, and sometimes also the plants run wild, the location, year and the name of the collector (or the data known at the moment) of the first (preserved) herbarium specimens are added.
		In the case of immigrant plants or plants run wild, the origin of the taxon (natural area) is given.
		Circumpolar coastal plants (Hultén groups 21, 22) are found mainly in the temperate coasts of Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, in smaller numbers also on the coasts of inland seas (Mediterranean, Black and Caspian Sea) or on the coasts of larger rivers and lakes.

	Plants
		The organisms we call plants are assigned to a single clade; that is, a natural grouping based on the belief that they have all evolved from a common ancestor more recent than any shared with other organisms.
		Although angiosperms appear in the fossil record in Jurassic deposits, it was not until the end of the Mesozoic era that angiosperms became the dominant plants of the landscape.
		However, the necessity for the microspores to be carried from one plant to another in order to reach the female gametophyte robbed them of their value as agents of dispersal.

		Plant distributions were provided in Radford, Ahles, and Bell's Manual of the Vascular Flora of the Carolinas (1968, UNC Press: Chapel Hill), and these have been maintained in the current Atlas.
		Approximately 3000 vascular plant species are listed in the Atlas, with a county dot map for each.
		The presence of a species in a county is indicated by a dot, and the dot is positioned at the centroid of that county; the maps in this Atlas suggest no other geographical distribution.
